About the festival
Hariyali Teej, "the green third", is a women's festival of the monsoon, kept on the third day (Tritiya) of the bright half of Shravana, when the fields and trees are green after the first rains. Women worship Parvati, who is called Teej Mata here, and remember the day she was united with Shiva after her long austerity.
